Dimmer than a streetlamp bleeding around a curtain edge — yet polysomnography showed more arousals and shallower sleep (Cho et al., 2016).
Deep sleep
Lights-on nights produced less slow-wave (deep) sleep and reduced delta and spindle power on EEG (Cho, Joo et al., 2013).

Higher night-time light exposure was linked to higher all-cause and cardiometabolic mortality in a large wearable-sensor cohort (Windred, Cain et al., 2024).
